Hi All,
As Chair of the Rules Working Party, and independent of Jason’s request, yesterday I jointly e-mailed Hugh Gent (President of the ANKC), Paul Littlejohn (Chair of the National RAFT Subcommittee) and Tracey Barry (ANKC Administrator) seeking permission to post a draft of the new Rules on this website.
Following is a precise of the response I received today;
The ANKC has received final confirmation that Version Z4 is now ready to be sent to the printers. This will be done and a notice will be sent to all State Offices advising of the effective date of the new Rulebook and also advising that stocks of the new Rulebook are currently being printed.
In regards to posting the Rules on the
http://www.australianworkingretrievercentral.org.au website, please note that any such request would first need to receive approval from all State Offices before permission could be granted as this is outside normal practice in regards to publishing ANKC Rulebooks. Should you wish to proceed please forward your request (together with a detailed rationale) to the ACTCA asking them to send it to this office for circulation to all State Offices through the 'out of session' approval process.
The ACTCA Office is closed until 17 January 2005; nevertheless, I plan to contact the Chair of the ACTCA RAFT seeking to promote support for the request.
Regards, RWT
